[E.L Lane's 48]

Found this on craigslist, and thought I would pass it on. Looks to be in decent shape. Not associated with sale. http://hickory.craigslist.org/cto/3596706843.html

Isn't that a 48?

For sure it is 1948 model, but may be made in early 1949. When I contacted the W.P. Chrysler Historical Society (or whatever the name is) to find about my car, they told that that serial number was rolled out either late in December 1948 or in January 1949. Obviously the new model year was started a bit delayed in February 1949 with the all new "soap box" body styles.

 

Whatever, the car for sale looks good for the price asked. The paint looks not original but tidy overall. The question obviously is, what is below the paint? Worth trying, anyway. I cannot see much of a risk in buying this at around 4kUSD.

$2500, tops as it sits. At least in the Memphis TN area. Ford or GM... add a 0.
